QAR Reading Strategy:
Question Answer Relationships Strategy teaches student how to decipher what types of questions they are being asked and where to find the answers to them. Four types of questions are examined in the QAR:
1. Right there Questions: Answers can be found in the text. Often the words used in the question are the same words found in the text.
2. Think and Search Questions: Answers are gathered from several parts of the text and put together to make meaning.
3. Author and Me: These questions are based on information provided in the text but the student is required to relate it to their own experience. Although the answer does not lie directly in the text, the student must have read it in order to answer the question.
4. On My Own: These questions do not require the student to have read the passage, but he/she must use their background or prior knowledge to answer the question.
